After hearing Huo Jue’s promise, Lang Nan finally relaxed and returned to his normal state.

Meanwhile, Huo Jue from the organization called over Liu Qing, who had been in the limelight recently.

Ever since he was promoted to a silver-level killer, he had been taking missions crazily. Moreover, his completion rate had always been at 100%. He was the person most likely to become a gold-level killer.

“Elder Huo, you were looking for me?”

“That’s right. Recently, I’ve noticed your name on the rankings. Seeing the speed at which you’re rising, 1 know you must be trying to make it into the ranks of gold-level killers.”

Huo Jue looked at Liu Qing kindly. “1 know there are many hardworking people in the organization, but it’s indeed rare to see someone as hardworking as you. You have to know that every mission has a possibility of losing your life. But you’re either completing the mission or on the way to completing it.”

“Thank you for your praise, Elder Huo. The fact that you noticed me among these people’s names means that my efforts all this time have not been in vain. I firmly believe that opportunities are always reserved for prepared people, so if 1 want to become stronger, I naturally have to know how to seize opportunities.”

Liu Qing cupped his fists and lowered his head slightly. He was still very excited. “This is also the reason why I’ve been working so hard. I’ve been unwilling to be mediocre since 1 was young. Since 1 want to do it, I have to be the best.”

“Very good. I admire such determination and faith. It’s not in vain that 1 specially called you over today.”

Huo Jue revealed a gratified gaze that contained certainty and encouragement for the young man. “I called you because 1 have a mission for you. It’s very easy to do. It can help you add another point to your credit book.”

When Liu Qing heard this, his face revealed an unconcealable excitement because this meant that Huo Jue was extending an olive branch to him. It was very rare for any elder to value him, so in the face of such a situation, there was no reason for Liu Qing not to accept it.

“Thank you for your favor, Elder Huo. Don’t worry, I’ll definitely work harder in the future. I won’t let your expectations go to waste.”

Liu Qing’s words were clearly filled with excitement. “No matter what happens in the future, I’m willing to do my best. 1 definitely won’t decline.”

“Alright, alright. Don’t say it so early. Complete the mission I gave you first. This is the prerequisite for you to become my subordinate. Only by completing the mission perfectly can you stop other rumors.”

Huo Jue continued, “And don’t be happy too early. Working for me might not be a good thing. I’m very strict with my subordinates.”

“It doesn’t matter. Please believe me. It’s the only way 1 can get better and do more for you.”

Liu Qing nodded slightly. “If there’s anything you need, just tell me.”

“I need you to go to the central city of the Federation tomorrow to kill someone for me. It’s the boss of the Shan Corporation, Shan Yue. There are many rumors about this person outside. I believe you can find some as long as you investigate.”

Huo Jue’s deep voice filled the room. “I heard from my employer that she has an expert protecting her. Moreover, she’s extremely skilled. I wonder if it’s difficult for you?”

“Of course not. Furthermore, according to what 1 know, the Federation’s Central City is currently in a state of lockdown due to an infectious disease. Everyone is panicking, and the economy is collapsing.”

No matter how difficult the environment in the Federation City was, Liu Qing immediately gave his answer without changing his expression. “As a member of the organization, I won’t be blocked by this small problem.”

“Very good. As long as there are no problems, it’s fine. Remember, the employer only gave you one day to act tomorrow. You’ll need to set off for Federation City tonight.”

Huo Jue leaned back on the sofa and leisurely crossed his legs. “Alright, I’ve already assigned the mission. I don’t care about the process. I just want to see the final outcome and look forward to your good news.”

With that, Huo Jue waved his hand, indicating that Liu Qing could leave. He did not waste any time. After bowing slightly, he left the room with confidence..
